History

The Viltrum Empire is the faction of the Viltrumites. The leader of the Viltrum Empire ruled the entire planet. Argall had been Emperor until his death by Thaedus. Desperate and in disarray, the Viltrumites battled each other, killing the weak of the planet. In order to build a perfect society after the disarray, The survivors of Viltrum Empire rebuilt the civilization from the ashes and began conquering planets for hundreds of years until The Scourge Virus infected them. After the disarray of Argall's death, Thragg was named the Grand Regent of the Viltrum Empire and was tasked with finding a successor for Argall.

Initially, Nolan, a Viltrumite, told his son, Mark that the Viltrumites traveled the galaxy, improving other planets. In actuality, they conquered planets. Many would accept takeover and other would resist and be killed. To combat this, Thaedus founded the Coalition of Planets to combat the Viltrumite threat. The conquered planets turned to the Coalition after the Viltrumites had abandoned their conquered planets.

During the Viltrumite War, Viltrum was destroyed and the Viltrumites took up residence on Earth, hiding among humans. Their new objective would be to replenish their ranks by creating Viltrumite/Human hybrids to save their species. Nolan would be discovered to be Argall's son and be placed on throne, but not before a bloody battle with Thragg. Nolan would rule the Viltrum Empire and seeks to change their violent ways. He then sentenced Thragg to exile as an example to other Viltrumites. During Invincible's battle with Rex, Nolan would secure an allegiance with Rex in order to prevent the Viltrumites' extinction, much to Mark's disgust.
